Description
These cheerful mermaid plasters for kids come as a set of 30, tucked inside a little metal tin with a printed lid. The lid is decorated all over with mermaids in pinks, oranges and sea greens, swimming among starfish, seahorses, shells, seaweed and shoals of tiny fish, with the words Mermaid Plasters across the middle in deep green and soft blue. The plasters themselves carry the same underwater scene on a pale mint background, so each one is a small picture of its own. You get a mix of three shapes: square patches, short strips and longer strips, so there is something to fit a knee, a finger or a shin. The tin is 10.3cm long, 7.3cm wide and 2.1cm deep, and weighs just 48g.
A plaster with a mermaid on it can turn a tearful moment into something to show off, which is why we like keeping a tin close at hand. It is small enough to slip into a school bag, a changing bag, a handbag or the car glovebox, and neat enough to sit in the bathroom cabinet or the first aid drawer. For children who love the sea and everything that swims in it, reaching for a plaster after a grazed knee in the park becomes a little less of a drama.
The plasters are made with PE plastic, foam and an acrylic adhesive, and they are latex free, a detail worth knowing if anyone in your home avoids latex. The metal tin keeps them flat and together rather than loose at the bottom of a bag, and once they are used up it makes a handy box for hair clips, coins or tiny treasures. Wipe the outside with a damp cloth to keep the print looking bright. We think a tin makes a sweet little extra for a young mermaid fan, tucked in alongside a book or a favourite toy.
